Are you allowed to touch the bottom of the pool in a water polo match?
No, no player can touch the bottom or sides of the pool during play - the water polo pool is a minimum of 1.8 meters deep Technically no, as an official water polo pool is a minimum of 1.8 meters deep. However, in some situations, such as in high school polo, this is not met. According to FINA rule 20.5, it is a foul "To take any active part in the game when standing on the floor of the pool, to walk when play is in progress or to jump from the floor of the pool to play the ball or tackle an opponent. This Rule shall not apply to the goalkeeper while within the goalkeeper's 5 metre area." Therefore, it is legal for a goalie to touch the bottom of the pool.

Which is harder water polo or soccer?
Water polo because you can get drowned i played both but water polo players and the goalies have to swim from 1 mile to 20 miles a game. On top of that they have to try and get the ball past the goalie and the def in 30 sec and if its a 3 feet pool they still cant tough the bottom (unless your the goalie.) I have also been playing soccer for 12 years water polo players are aloud to punch the person there defending but in soccer if you even hit the person your def you could get a yellow or red card depending on the reff. You can get a broken ankle in soccer but it does not compare to an injery in water polo
